AJAY DEVGN IN DIL TOH BACCHA HAI JI

2010 has clearly been Ajay Devgn's year and 2011 too should start on a positive note for the actor who is now seen in DIL TOH BACCHA HAI JI. However, the successful man isn't trying to put on a mask of modesty here and rightly so. Not intending to seem fake while also keeping his excitement in check, the actor does accept all the appreciation coming his way while also acknowledging the fact that it is 'men' (and not really 'boys') who are pretty much ruling Bollywood today.
"Let's face it, it's a worldwide phenomenon in any film industry and there is nothing to feel shy about. Whether it is Hollywood or Bollywood, you would find heroes who come with a decade or more of experience actually calling the shots," says Ajay who has been seen in ATITHI TUM KAB JAOGE (semi-hit), RAAJNEETI (super-hit), ONCE UPON A TIME IN MUMBAAI (hit), AAKROSH (flop) and GOLMAAL 3 (blockbuster) last year.
He could well be right. After all even in Bollywood, the top slots are pretty much occupied by the likes of Aamir Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, Saif Ali Khan and of course himself, all of whom are on the other side of the 40s.
Tell Ajay about this and he laughs, "This is why I always say that men will be men, I remember telling someone that whatever be the case, the fact is that industry <i>toh buddhe hi chala rahe hain</i> (...that industry is being ruled by the old men)."
Well said, Ajay!
